Podocyte Mitosis - A Catastrophe [PDF]
Current Molecular Medicine, 2012 Podocyte loss plays a key role in the progression of glomerular disorders towards glomerulosclerosis and chronic kidney disease. Podocytes form unique cytoplasmic extensions, foot processes, which attach to the outer surface of the glomerular basement membrane and interdigitate with neighboring podocytes to form the slit diaphragm.

Angiopoietin-Like-4, a Potential Target of Tacrolimus, Predicts Earlier Podocyte Injury in Minimal Change Disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Podocyte injury plays central roles in proteinuria and kidney dysfunction, therefore, identifying specific biomarker to evaluate earlier podocyte injury is highly desirable.

Loss of decay-accelerating factor triggers podocyte injury and glomerulosclerosis
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2020 While glomerulosclerosis commonly progresses to kidney failure, its mechanisms are unclear. Using murine models and human samples, the authors show that progressive glomerulosclerosis results from loss of decay-accelerating factor (DAF/CD55) on podocytes,

Podocyte Biology and the Emerging Understanding of Podocyte Diseases [PDF]
American Journal of Nephrology, 2003 The understanding of the unique molecular apparatus of the podocyte has increased dramatically in recent years. This new knowledge has improved the diagnosis and classification of the diseases that have been termed podocytopathies. Podocyte injury frequently leads to reorganization of the slit diaphragm and reorganization of the foot process structure.

BMC Nephrology, 2006 Background A reduction in the number of podocytes and podocyte density has been documented in the kidneys of patients with diabetes mellitus. Additional studies have shown that podocyte injury and loss occurs in both diabetic animals and humans. However,

Podocytes: recent biomolecular developments [PDF]
Biomolecular Concepts, 2014 AbstractPodocytes are postmitotic renal glomerular cells with multiple ramifications that extend from the cell body. Processes departing from a podocyte interdigitate with corresponding projections from neighboring cells and form an intricate web that enwraps the glomerular capillary completely.

Podocyte Lipotoxicity in CKD [PDF]
Kidney360, 2021 CKD represents the ninth most common cause of death in the United States but, despite this large health burden, treatment options for affected patients remain limited. To remedy this, several relevant pathways have been identified that may lead to novel therapeutic options.

Trehalose, an mTOR independent autophagy inducer, alleviates human podocyte injury after puromycin aminonucleoside treatment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Glomerular diseases are commonly characterized by podocyte injury including apoptosis, actin cytoskeleton rearrangement and detachment. However, the strategies for preventing podocyte damage remain insufficient.
